虽然与多样性和包容性有关的概念通常是大学使命和愿景的一部分,但将这些概念付诸实践可能会带来挑战。这项研究确定了在多学科健康科学大学的多样性和包容性的概念和实践之间的差异。结果表明,参与者经历了沿着一系列的参与。西班牙裔/拉丁裔学生,教师和工作人员以及女同性恋,男同性恋,双性恋,变性人和同性恋学生和工作人员在大学定期经历了性骚扰行为,这导致了恐惧。结果表明,包容性努力的障碍,并指出,大学必须弥合多样性概念和实践之间的差距。
While the concepts related to diversity and inclusion are commonly found as part of universities' mission and vision, implementing these concepts into practice can present a challenge. This study identified discrepancies between concepts and practice of diversity and inclusion at a multidisciplinary health sciences university. The results indicated that participants experienced inclusion along a range of engagement. Hispanic/Latino students, faculty, and staff as well as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer students and staff experienced disparaging behavior on a regular basis at the University, which contributed to fear. The results demonstrate barriers to the inclusion efforts and indicate that the university must bridge the gap between diversity concepts and practice.
